Say Hey
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This one goes out to you and yours
Worldwide

I say, hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

I've been a lot of places all around the way
I've seen a lot joy and I've seen a lot of pain
But I don't wanna write a love song for the world
I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl

People on the corner always callin' my name
And the kids on the corner playin' ghetto games
When I saw you gettin' down, well, I hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true

I say, hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Now I'm not a highly metaphysical man
But I know when the stars are aligned, you can
Bump into person in the middle of the road
Look into their eyes and you suddenly know

Rockin' in the dance hall, movin' with you
Dancin' in the night in the middle of June
My momma told me don't lose you
'Cause the best luck I had was you

I say, hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I seem, the less I know

But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

And I said rockin' in the dance hall, movin' with you
I said, hey momma, hey momma, close to you
Rockin' in the dance hall, movin' with you
I said, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
Hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
Hey momma, hey momma

My momma told me don't lose you
'Cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing that I love you

I say, hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know

I say, hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Rockin' in the dance hall, movin' with you
I said, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
Hey momma




Rockin' in the dance hall, movin' with you
Come on, hey momma, hey momma, I hope it's you
